  2. Concurrent computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_computing

    In this way, multiple processes are part-way through execution at a single instant, but only one process is being executed at that instant. [citation needed] Concurrent computations may be executed in parallel, [3] [6] for example, by assigning each process to a separate processor or processor core, or distributing a computation across a network.

  3. Multiprocessing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprocessing

    Multiprocessing is the use of two or more central processing units (CPUs) within a single computer system. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The term also refers to the ability of a system to support more than one processor or the ability to allocate tasks between them.

  4. Task parallelism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Task_parallelism

    Task parallelism (also known as function parallelism and control parallelism) is a form of parallelization of computer code across multiple processors in parallel computing environments. Task parallelism focuses on distributing tasks—concurrently performed by processes or threads—across different processors.

  5. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_(computing)

    However, in multiprocessing systems many processes may run off of, or share, the same reentrant program at the same location in memory, but each process is said to own its own image of the program. Processes are often called "tasks" in embedded operating systems. The sense of "process" (or task) is "something that takes up time", as opposed to ...

  6. Multiprocessor system architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprocessor_system...

    Multiprocessor system with a shared memory closely connected to the processors. A symmetric multiprocessing system is a system with centralized shared memory called main memory (MM) operating under a single operating system with two or more homogeneous processors. There are two types of systems: Uniform memory-access (UMA) system; NUMA system

  7. Multithreading (computer architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multithreading_(computer...

    A process with two threads of execution, running on a single processor . In computer architecture, multithreading is the ability of a central processing unit (CPU) (or a single core in a multi-core processor) to provide multiple threads of execution.

  8. Concurrency (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrency_(computer_science)

    The Concurrency Representation Theorem in the actor model provides a fairly general way to represent concurrent systems that are closed in the sense that they do not receive communications from outside. (Other concurrency systems, e.g., process calculi can be modeled in the actor model using a two-phase commit protocol. [13])

  9. Simultaneous and heterogeneous multithreading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_and...

    Simultaneous and heterogeneous multithreading (SHMT) is a software framework that takes advantage of heterogeneous computing systems that contain a mixture of central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs), and special purpose machine learning hardware, for example Tensor Processing Units (TPUs).
